Maryland State Police are asking for the public's assistance in locating a man who robbed a Delmar convenience store at gunpoint Thursday night.

At about 8:41 p.m. on Jan. 3, officers responded to Thirsty's Convenience Store on Ocean Highway after the armed robbery, according to police.

The store clerk told police a black man wearing blue jeans, a black hoodie jacket and a mask over his face went into the store with a black handgun. The man demanded all money from the register and fled on foot out the front door in an unknown direction.

Anyone with information on the robbery suspect is asked to call Maryland State Police at 410-749-3101. This investigation is ongoing.
